- The goodies i remember from last summer were:
-
- - Zeus/mentor
- - native compiler
- - Modula 3 aware debugger with thread support
- - network objects
- - incremental garbage collector
-
- Zeus/Mentor and the incremental collector are there. The weakref are
- somewhat a bonus although they are strongly related to network objects
- which are probably close to ready (they are mentioned in the weakref
- interface). Let see when the compiler/debugger appear... probably in a few
- months. I suppose it is better not to ask because these things are usually
- ready when they are ready. Moreover, DEC SRC has done an excellent job of
- sparing us from buggy releases. Admittedly though it is more difficult to
- write buggy programs in Modula 3 :-).
